Ok....being the Virgo that I am...I was too impatient and have moved up the surgery date to May14....woohoo! So no changes to my pre-op diet. I will have two weeks for that and then surgery time! I'm so excited and nervous.

I'm starting my pre-op on the 3rd. It includes some vitamins and a shake that the nutrionist at the center is providing. It comes in a package so I don't have to worry about which shakes to take. I'm allowed to have a small dinner the first week and all liquids the 2nd. I moved up my surgery date to May 14....I'm too impatient.

:biggrin: I start my pre-op diet on May 3rd and the time cannot pass fast enough. I see the pics of all the women who have done the surgery and get super excited. My sister has lost so much weight in just 2 weeks and she looks great already. Soon it will be my turn!!!!! This week i'm focusing on eating the foods I will not be able to eat. :confused:

omg...these are amazing pics. You def syked me out about this procedure. -
I'd love to keep in touch. My pre-op diet starts on May 3rd. The nutritionist is giving me shakes along with some pills to suppress my appetite. I get to have a small dinner everyday except for the last week which will be all liquids. Im kind of looking forward to this too since I am supposed to loose some weight with this. :thumbup: What were you told to do on your pre-op diet?
-
Thank you! I sure will. I look forward to seeing your updates as well. :-)

I am nervous and excited. I cannot grasp that I will FINALLY be a thinner and healthier me. I'm going to blog my progress and post pics as well. Will you be doing the same?

I have been overwieght for most of my life and have been on a diet for as long as I could remember. Everyday is full of awkwardness. Between the tight pants that pinch my belly to the rolls on my back that cannot be hidden. Everything about being overweight is horrible. I have a healthier less out of breath person inside me that wants to come out. I have always known that surgical procedures were out there but my insurance didn't cover it and I thought it would be too expensive to do on my own. One day my sister, who has had her own weight issues, told me she was getting the lapband procedure done with Strax Rejuvenation. She encouraged me to try have my own consultation. After meeting with Dr. Choi I was hooked. He answered all my questions and thankfully the procedure is not as expensive as I originally thought. I was approved the same day, had some tests done and met with the nutritionist. I chose to have my surgery on May 28 and will be starting my pre op diet on May 3rd. I am super excited to begin my new way of life and will be posting updates periodically along with pics. Wish me luck!! :w00t:
